The 256-byte RAM ceiling constrains data buffers — a UART FIFO of 64 bytes plus a few sensor readings will consume half of it. For applications needing larger look-up tables or packet buffers, the next density step in the MSP430G2xx family offers 8 KB Flash and 512 B RAM in the same 14-TSSOP footprint, a direct pin-compatible upgrade path. ## Supply range and power rail compatibility At 1.8 V the 16 MHz core speed is still guaranteed, but the Flash access penalty may require wait states — the MSP430G2xx datasheet provides the timing table. For designs targeting sub-1 µA sleep current, the MSP430 architecture's active and standby modes are well documented; this part includes a brown-out reset that prevents corrupt execution during supply droop. The 14-TSSOP package (4.40 mm width, 0.173\" body) is a surface-mount, fine-pitch small-outline package with 10 general-purpose I/O pins brought out. The pinout is shared across several MSP430G2xx devices, so a layout can accommodate multiple Flash/RAM options without a board spin. The 14-TSSOP footprint is common enough that solder stencil and reflow profiles are well established; no special handling beyond standard MSL precautions is required. ROHS3 compliance is confirmed. For production BOMs, this part can be specified with confidence in its long-term availability through authorized distribution and independent channels.","metaTitle":"TI MSP430G2302IPW14R 16-bit MCU, 16 MHz, 4 KB Flash","metaDescription":"Texas Instruments MSP430G2302IPW14R 16-bit MCU with 16 MHz core, 4 KB Flash, 256 B RAM, 1.8-3.6 V supply, -40 to 85°C.

The die, firmware, and electrical specifications are identical. The R suffix only denotes the reel packaging format, so a firmware binary programmed for one works on the other without changes."},{"question":"What is the 16 MHz speed rating good for in this MCU?","answer":"The 16 MHz core clock is the maximum CPU frequency for the MSP430 CPU16. At this speed the device can execute most single-cycle instructions in 62.5 ns, which is adequate for real-time control loops sampling at tens of kilohertz, UART/I²C/SPI communication at standard bit rates, and PWM generation up to several hundred kilohertz."},{"question":"Can MSP430G2302IPW14R be programmed using the standard MSP430 JTAG or Spy-Bi-Wire interface?","answer":"Yes, this device supports the two-wire Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) debug and programming interface standard on all MSP430G2xx devices. The SBW interface uses the TEST and RST pins, requiring only a simple adapter to connect to a standard MSP430 programmer like the MSP-FET or eZ-FET. Full JTAG (4-wire) is also supported but less commonly used on these small-package parts."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/MSP430G2302IPW14R","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/MSP430G2302IPW14R when reusing this data.
